It's me again, the newest enthusiast.

It's me again, the newest enthusiast.

I went with a different friend to go skiing again. I've worked my way up into more blue runs and I'm feeling fairly confident in my progress.

I've now consumed almost all of the training videos that appear to be worth watching on YouTube. SKNG had some really useful tips that might have been helpful my first trip, and I found them informative to what I should be doing now.

The snow conditions were much better this trip. In the mean time I had thrifted a North Face Coat, Snow Bibs, and gloves for $50 and they kept me almost too warm on that 20°F(-6°C) day.

I'm actually going to head up to Caberfea Presidents Day weekend (lift tickets are $30 with hotel room!!! Truely insane) I'll try to get photos and videos then. For 2 more days of skiing this year, and I'm hoping to get one last day of skiing in sometime in March. But we'll see, it's been consistently 40 plus degrees this last week and appears that will continue atleast another 14 days.
